Your health and wellbeing

Making the most of our health and wellbeing, keeping active and eating well has a direct impact on our vascular health. As we age many of us notice small thread veins on our  ankles, knees and legs. Starting as a thin red or purple line thread veins quickly develop to form a fine web-like pattern that deepens in colour and spreads across the skin.

Thread veins may be the first visible indication that there is an underlying vascular problem. Varicose veins may not be visible but cause discomfort, pain, itching and irritation.

Restless, painful legs

Varicose vein symptoms are often overlooked. It’s a gradual process but If you notice thread veins and suffer with restless legs it’s worth seeking expert treatment.

“Many of my patients first experience discomfort at the end of the day. Relieving initial symptoms by raising their legs to alleviate pain and increase blood flow.”

Varicose vein symptoms

So, what do we need to look out for? If you notice any changes in your skin on your legs, especially around the ankles, develop thread veins or suffer with raised veins book a consultation.
